jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

were you able to get anywhere with this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well me and my friend were trying, and she thought it was SAS Similarity Theorem.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

no, that's not correct

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

when two lines are parallel, what can we say about the alternate interior angles?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

any ideas?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

they have the same measure?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yep, so you can say that the corresponding angles of the two triangles are congruent

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

so which theorem would you use then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

AA Similarity Postulate?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

good

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have another question..

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well actually i hjave 2 if that's okay :)

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

for the first one, what did you get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

triangles WYZ and XWZ, & triangles AZC and BCZ.

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

triangles WYZ and XWZ are not similar

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

triangles AZC and BCZ aren't similar either

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So it would be the three answers besides triangles WYZ and XWZ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

triangles XWZ and ACZ & triangles YWZ and BCZ?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yes, triangles XWZ and ACZ & triangles YWZ and BCZ

OpenStudy (anonymous):

To the nearest mile, the diameter of the hurricane is _____ miles? I dont get this question really?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

150/50 = x/35 150*35 = 50x 5250 = 50x 50x = 5250 x = ???

OpenStudy (anonymous):

105?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

THANKS!
